See, this is a bad example, because you're not talking about two reasonably able-boddied people who produce greater output than demand... You're talking about two people who really need help -- whos demand is really greater than their output. Yes, of course, this situation will be more taxing than a nuclear family. I contend however that helping them would be much easier in the environment of a significantly larger extended family. On a personal note, I'm really impressed, Tim. :) Most folks I've met don't seem to have that kind of commitment to people -- family or otherwise. s. isaac dealey 954.522.6080 new epoch : isn't it time for a change? add features without fixtures with the onTap open source framework http://www.fusiontap.com http://coldfusion.sys-con.com/author/4806Dealey.htm ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Discover CFTicket - The leading ColdFusion Help Desk and Trouble Ticket application http://www.houseoffusion.com/banners/view.cfm?bannerid=48 Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:5:167169 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/5 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:5 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.5 Donations & Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54
